Make points all over and anywhere the globe where you can make as relative starting point. You choose your designated time house. When sun peaks above the horizon at said location, it is sun rise starting point at that location. Develop a photonic time piece and mass produce. As sun rise starts in that location, all who decide to use that location's base time have their photonic time pieces automatically start tick tocking light bounces when sun has peaked. Every Sun rise at said location, the time piece begins again at tick tocking. Ticks are counted so you can say meet me at 400 Giga ticks in third day of Winter. Or how ever many ticks a light clock would make to be your decided amount of time after sun rise.)(TASR)
Or you could use the sun's highest point at your designated time house starting point. Ticks after noon (TAN)
Or Ticks After Sunset (TASS)
Or ticks after your favorite earth shattering event. Ex: Ticks after First Man on Mars(TAFMoM)
byte = 8 bits or on off switches nibble= two bytes (usually) word= four bytes kilobyte =1000 or 1024 bytes 10^3 or 2^10 bytes Megabyte = 1,000,000 or 10*10*10*10*10*10 or 10^6 or actually 2^20 bytes Gigabyte = 1,000,000,000 or 10^9 or 2^30 bytes Terabyte = 1,000,000,000,000 or 10^12 or 2^40 bytes Petabyte = 1,000,000,000,000,000 or 10^15 or 2^50 bytes Exabyte = 1,000,000,000,000,000,000 or 10^18 or 2^60 bytes Zetabyte = 1,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 or 10^21 or 2^70 bytes Yottabyte = 1,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 or 10^24 or 2^80 bytes
The naming conventions of bytes is greek. Look it up Peta is like Penta (five commas), exa like hex( six commas), zeta like septa (seven commas) yotta like octal count em eight commas. a kilo is literally looked up as a thousand . I forget what Mega, giga, and tera mean but for their time, they were naming them probably for making a sale or to make it look like much. when in all actuallity who knows... depends on what you do with it.

The BlueGene L super computer simulates half of mouse's brain at only hundreds of TBs storage and 16 TB memory. An entire human brain is obviously many orders of magnitude away from today's everyday technology. But with photonic siliconics around the corner your most wild dreams may come true.

Shouldn't computers be run by lasers and optical transistors now?
I don't know much about computers for a nerd, but I think the bottleneck is maybe that we should be using light instead of metal wires? Are the costs too high for optical components? I think there was a silicon optical transistor in development. We should skip all of the xponential climbing and just shoot for the top, but hell I don't know much about economics of it. Who care's about moore's law? Does an newage idea have to dictate what will happen ? I don't know about you , but I'm sick of the dictator.
I did a search with google and found Some scientists believe the bible still. Light could have been much faster in the beginning account for the so called light years between us and the stars. Light would have recently , thousands of years ago, turned to its current slower state of 186,000 miles/sec.
I once read a book what was it called again? Ah yes, I remember now. FIRE IN THE VALLEY. It discusses all of the ideas you were mentioning and more. It's a great cover story of the making of the personal computer. From PDP to Altair to Apple and all that other stuff in between and before and after.
It doesn't talk about how things were assembled, but it gave a good idea of the market for personal computers in the late seventies and how it all started.

and if backwards time compatibility is an issue, make time pieces with instant translation capability. hah.

wouldn't mozilla firefox have halted unwanted popups?
only if people listened to the nerds who know.
What ever happened to optical computing? Or is that only for top secret projects?

I thought the optical transistor had already been invented.

I also got the flu.
